The Signature Chef Knife Block

Solid hardwood. 30 rare earth magnets. Built to be the most impressive thing on your counter.

 

Most knife blocks are an afterthought. This one is the reason people ask about your kitchen.

 

The Ember Ridge Signature Knife Block is built from solid hardwood — your choice of species or combination — and designed to hold a 4 to 5 piece chef knife set in full display. Thirty rare earth magnets are inlaid directly into the wood with no visible points of entry on the finished surface. The wood looks exactly like wood. The magnets are invisible until a knife meets the face and clicks into place with the kind of satisfying snap that tells you something was engineered to work properly.

 

The base connects to the block with hand-turned hardwood pegs — no metal hardware, no visible fasteners. The front face is cut at a 7 degree angle, a subtle design detail that gives the block a forward lean and a presence on the counter that a flat face never achieves.

 

Every knife block goes through a 7 day food safe oil and wax finishing process that brings out the full character of the wood and protects it for years of daily use.
